Leaving Las Betas... Get your memorials FREE for one more week.

Well here we are. Another week gone by and we're putting in a whole host of changes.

First, we're going to make some tweaks to the home page so that it looks / aligns a bit better. I think it may also help a bit with SEO but we'll see when we get there... We don't want to be like Facebook redesigning every 6-9 months, but I think the changes are a net positive.

Props out to Nicole Ferraro of InternetEvolution.com who "gagged" when she saw the Facebook "Like" button on the memorials. It didn't register with me until someone posted a memorial for a 10 year old girl. Somehow "Be the first person to LIKE this" just hit me way hard and I nearly lost it. We're changing the button as I type this.

Once the payment system is in and tested we'll be leaving Beta (finally!) and start charging for memorials. So if you have a family member or a loved one that you'd like to share photos and memories with your family, you've got a chance now to create a free commemorative memorial anytime before September 30th.

Last note - today a Utah serviceman was killed in Afghanistan. I'm thinking that it would be good if we didn't charge the military, policemen, firemen, etc. for memorials. I think anyone who has served their country should be honored in every way possible. What do you think?

Until next time...
